Last week, when Bobby and I were sitting at the bar in Pie-casso, there was a giant slalom event on the television. I told him that it looked cool. "Oh, that's giant slalom," he said ( Read more... )

That's so terrific, Dawn. Wow! Congratulations, Bobby!

It been snowing here all day. I have no idea how much. It is impossible for me to tell looking out the window. Definitely not a blizzard!

I am so excited for him! He's only been riding for four years now, but he's worked really hard for those four years; this was a well-deserved medal. :)

I don't know how much we have right now: somewhere between 8-12 inches, I'd guess. Enough that the Goldens had to work to walk through it. And it's still coming down hard.

That's awesome! :D Congratulations to Bobby!

I wish we got snow here - we have freezing rain! On top of the snow and ice from earlier this week, there is now an ice rink outside my front door. The Goldens look adorable peeking in the door.

From Bobby: Thank you! :)

Ours is supposed to change to "wintry mix" and then rain. Bleh. We had a nice couple of inches of snow in the yard, but the constantly thawing and refreezing, plus the "wintry mix" we've been getting on a weekly basis, had our yard like an ice rink too. It was awful--the poor Goldens would slip and fall whenever they had to pee! I hope the rain tomorrow doesn't annihilate the snow before we get to enjoy it for a full day.

Congratulations to Bobby!

It's been raining all day here, thankfully. We were supposed to get either more snow (we had about 8"-10") and/or freezing rain. But it's going to freeze over tonight and turn into ice anyway.

Thank you from Bobby! :)

Ours is supposed to change to "wintry mix" and then rain, I think beginning tonight. Meh. I'd rather have the snow. Our yard has had ice several inches thick for weeks now; I feel like I take my life in my hands every time I walk from the house to the car! The snow is much more pleasant to look on and deal with. But this has been the winter of ice; this is a biggest snowfall this year by far.

Congratulations to Bobby! :)

Today has been really nice but there is bad weather to the west of us. Looks like Denver will really get hit. But according to the models, we should only get brushed by it -- or at least that's what it says so far. We'll see. ::crosses fingers::

Thank you! :D

Ours was supposed to turn to "wintry mix" and rain, but Bobby told me it is now supposed to stay as snow! \0/ We've had so much ice this year, I'm sick of it. The yard had ice a few inches thick in some places.

I hope your weather cooperates too!
